Nevada Organic Phosphate (CSE:NOP) has remobilised Falcon Drilling to complete its 2026 program at the Murdock Mountain Phosphate Project in Nevada, US.
The contractor will continue step-out drilling along the Upper Phosphate zone after drill hole MM26-10 confirmed phosphate mineralisation extending more than 3km of strike.
The drilling will test strike continuity and refine true thickness and grade controls across the Murdock Mountain trend.
CEO Robin Dow says Falcon’s return will allow the company to advance the program.
“Now that we have Falcon Drilling back on board, we can continue to make significant progress,” Dow says.
Nevada Organic has also updated its interpretation of drill hole MM26-8, which returned 5m true thickness @ 4.60% phosphorus pentoxide (P₂O₅) in the Upper Phosphate zone.
The company says the interval was diluted by detrital material but became clearer following a detailed review of assay data and recorded core angles.
Director Garry Smith says the confirmed footprint provides a basis for further evaluation and step-out drilling.
“The successful intersection of the Upper Phosphate zone over 3km was a foundational requirement for future evaluation work. Now we can continue drilling to explore the strike potential on the Nevagro Exploration Permit,” Smith says.
Nevada Organic has completed 10 holes at Murdock Mountain. Results range from 3.6m @ 10.89% P₂O₅ to 6m @ 11.82% P₂O₅, while the highest-grade interval returned 11.89% P₂O₅ over 4.58m.
Earlier this month, Nevada Organic appointed P&E Mining Consultants to provide independent technical support for the project.
